Ocean Thermal Energy

By: EnviroCitizen | 2010-09-20 | Science
Thermal energy is renewable and is generated without an impact on the environment. In layman's terms, thermal energy can be transferred to other objects, heating them, causing the molecules to move faster. Ocean thermal energy is a popular form of solar energy. The United States took a strong interest in ocean thermal energy plants in 1974 and has since expanded their use. read more

Solar Thermal Energy

By: EnviroCitizen | 2010-09-20 | Science
Solar thermal energy refers to using solar energy (the renewable energy generated from the sun) for thermal uses. This energy is completely renewable, which could solve worldwide energy problems. It is important to keep in mind that solar thermal energy generates a different kind of energy than photovoltaics. Solar thermal energy is harnessed through low, medium, and high solar collectors. Each applies the concept of thermal energy generation in various ways. read more

How Thermal Energy Impacts on the Environment

By: EnviroCitizen | 2010-10-15 | Science
How much does thermal energy actually impact the environment? The answer is, a lot. Thermal energy removes a large amount of stress from the environment by using a renewable source. This renewable source uses no fossil fuels, creates no pollution, and emits no greenhouse gases. read more

Hot Water - Solar Thermal Energy Basics

By: Edmund E. Taylor | 2010-04-01 | Interior design
Solar thermal technology, lesser known than it's electricity generating cousin, is the conversion of solar energy into thermal energy. The technology is generally separated into three distinct classes; high-, medium-, and low-temperature collection. Each class has it's own set of applications, ranging from low-temperature systems for heating swimming pools to high-temperature systems employed in solar thermal power plants. read more

How Does Geothermal Energy Differ From Thermal Energy

By: EnviroCitizen | 2010-09-17 | Science
Geothermal energy is energy derived from the heat stored in the earth. This is very different from thermal energy, which is energy that manifests itself from a change in temperature. Geothermal energy originates from the original formation of the planet, as well as from the absorption of solar energy which is absorbed at the surface of the earth. Geothermal energy is currently used for generating electricity. read more
